Guys could anyone of you tell me about the RAPID divisions in the IA? I want to know more, more than what a quick search on google tells me. My interests in the subject arose due to a close relative commanding one of these divs.
Thanks in advance !

Indian Army won a Silver Medal in the Cambrian Patrol-2018 represented by 2nd Battalion 8th Gorkha Rifles.
Known as Sangro, he was the 18th CO of 10 PARA and died due to multiple organs failure teeming from Jaundice.
Bravest of the Brave-9 PARA SF A.K.A "Mountain Rats": India's best warfighters combating terrorism in the high reaches of Kashmir, scaling peaks and doing impeccable operations even behind the enemy lines. No Indian Special Operations Unit come close to the legend that 9 PARA commands in terms of experience and battle record with their noteworthy operations being the Mandhol Gun Raid, Defence of Poonch and Akhnoor, the capture of Zulu Ridge in Kargil and the latest being the 2016 Surgical Strikes in PoK. It is the first unit to gain "Commando" status in the Indian Army, first to gain "Special Force" status, has exercised with almost 40+ Special Operations Teams around the world like SAS, SEALS, DELTA, Green Berets, Sayeret Matakal, Spetsnaz and more.
Their motto "Who Cares, Who Wins" and the war cry is Durge Mata ki Jai , Mangla Mata ki Jai and Jai Baba Bholenath. They are India's Best of the Best with the most number of Ashok Chakras (4) in the Parachute Regiment Family. It has also borne some of the legendary Special Forces Operatives like Major Walia, Captain Jasrotia, Paratrooper Sanjor Chetri and more. 9 PARA also created other Special Operations Teams in India like secretive Special Group, 10 PARA, 3 PARA, 11 PARA, NSG and 31 Rashtriya Rifles ( Commando ).
Fun Fact: India procured C-130J Strategic Airlifters from USA after 9 PARA SF Officers advised the MoD and DAC during a joint exercise with British SAS where they realized its potential.

"Mustaffa of the Desert Warfare"- 10 PARA SF A.K.A "Desert Scorpions"
Known earlier as 10 PARA Commando (cdo) , 10 PARA was formed after splitting the "Bravo" Team of 9 PARA Commando to form a new Desert Warfare Unit on July 1, 1967 to carry out long-distance desert raids behind enemy lines paving way for Infantry Attacks in a similar way as the British SAS did in North Africa during World War-2. Based at Jodhpur, 10 PARA is now one of the most combat experienced units in Indian Army with a Detachment deployed in Kashmir for Counter-Terrorism and Counter-Insurgency Operations and an additional team in Delhi.
Some of the most notable operations by 10 PARA including the infamous Chachro and Islamkot Raid of 1971 which was led by Lt Col (Then) His Highness Bhawani Singh, King of Jaipur. 10 PARA has also contributed to multiple Counter Terror Ops in Kashmir for which it has won many accolades and distinctions.
Indian Army 10th Para SF when they won Exercise Airborne Africa outgunning their counterparts from the US, South Africa, U.K., France, hosts Botswana and a clutch of African nations in the Kalahari desert.

I guess some cool stories or some specifics about it's role in a war like scenario, mostly something that Wikipedia wont tell me. Thank in advance !
A large amount of cargo meant for Pakistan from NK has been confiscated by IN and USN and never publicised.Also wonder what happened to the ship load of knock down missile manufacturing toolings and equipments of NK origin destined for Pak ..... captured in the high seas.
Did we set it up somewhere or returned it to the Pak.... as a good will gesture
